AMBASSADOR ANGELINE WANJIRU

My name is Angeline Njeri Wanjiru. I was born in Kiambu, Kenya and lived in Nairobi, Kenya till the age of 16. I am a 26 year old student at the University of Wuppertal, Germany. Am studying business sciences and economics. Having grown up with my grandparents as a young girl, I love Kenya because it`s my homeland. Kenya is a great country full of life and authentic people. The different traditions, the mix of races and tribes and people from all walks of life make Kenya a multicultural country. Furthermore, the God given natural resources and treasures, the nature and wildlife makes Kenya a wonderful place to live and rich of life. Moreover, the extraordinary weather is a luxury for us. Besides, my entire extended and loving family and friends who are still living in Kenya play a great role in my life. All that I am today started there and makes the most of what I have grown up to be. My grandparents and parents really put effort to teach me the essentials of our tradition and the good about Kenya. Last but not least, I love our culture and typical Kenyan dishes like "nyama choma" which are just exceptional. Those are just a few to mention because Kenya is a wonderful country and there are endless reasons why I love my country, Kenya. Am proud to be Kenyan.

I love children! Helping and working with them brings me joy and peace. My charity of choice is Childhood Cancer Initiative, Kenya. The mission is to share information and experience to improve treatment and care for children with cancer as well as to support  families of children with cancer. More information: www.icccpo.org
